Remember I told you that jdramas aren't my thing? Well, I think I've narrowed it down to the jdramas that are adaptations of mangas/anime... those seem to be the ones that don't work for me, because I'm fine with Kimura's stuff.

Which is kinda weird, because I've watched taiwanese adaptations of mangas and loved them (ISWAK, Hana Kimi, etc). It might be a cultural humour thing, maybe.
